2nd issue of Friday Favorites!

Hi there and happy Friday! Hope everyone’s week has been better than mine! As I briefly mentioned in this morning’s post I will explain in detail why this week was so rough later. Today I am taking the standpoint that I will fake it till I make it. I spiced up my work outfit today and curled the locks to look especially cute. Though since I don’t get much human interaction in my lowly cube I‘m sure no one will even notice at work 😦 I feel good (or faking I do) and that’s all that matters.

MapmyRun iphone app. I love this- it’s a simple app where I can map a route online for the distance I want to go and the neighborhood (some streets I prefer to run then others). I can also just run and it will keep track of the route I went on. Also every mile it will tell you distance reached and your pace. I’m trying to run outside more (I feel I go farther and harder than a treadmill) and this app is great.

Pepperplate– I haven’t used this much but it’s a neat concept. It’s a meal planning website where you can add your own recipes, create shopping lists and meal plan like a pro!

I have loved these ever since I found these a couple years ago. I hate when my headphones fall out of my ears when I sweat- which happens when on a run in your teeny apartment gym with no working AC in August and 4 other sweaty people are working out. Anyway, these stay in my ears the entire time- they clip to the bottom of your ear instead of the top- I’ve ttied those and they fall off since I sweat there, too. Give these a try- I cant recommend them enough!

Katie had this whip cream dispenser on her blog. Since dairy isn’t really my friend anymore I can’t tell you how much I miss whipped cream! I’ve been consuming a lot more coconut milk and I can put the ‘hardened’ coconut milk from the fridge in this gadget. I totally want this!!

ALT Larabar- I saw this on Sarah’s blog and I have to find it!! This bar has the normal clean ingredients of a Larabar with added protein made from peas! I’ve got to get my hands on one!
